1. My guest posters rock. Seriously. As in, maybe I should just let them take over? I could be like their pimp. Or something.
2. You probably should really just ignore me right now because I’m not exactly coherent. I always used to think that people who traveled for business were lucky, like it was one big hotel hopping party. I was wrong. I know that now. The days are long and it feels like there’s no reprieve - I am actually working longer, harder hours and, um, I never thought I’d say this but I MISS THE DAMN OFFICE.
3. Also, I miss my bed. And M. And M in my bed. I actually had a dream about sex last night. Apparently my subconscious is pretty pissed about the lack of any action lately.
4. Boston is so cute. I rarely leave the hotel but when I do, I marvel at just how damn adorable it is. I must sound like a condescending New Yorker with all the “aww”s but it’s genuine. Hi Boston, I have a crush on you. Do you like me back? Check yes or no. From, Clink.
5. Boston is fucking cold, though.
6. I think I’m pregnant. No, seriously. My assistant actually bought me a pregnancy test (mainly so I would shut up about complaining that I’m pregnant and just find out, once and for all). I’m just. so. nauseous. I’m not a nauseous person, normally. It takes a lot to make me nauseous. I think it is a baby that is making me nauseous.
7. The silver lining is that I’m totally using it as an excuse to eat whatever I want. “For two!”
8. Omigod, you guys! I was awesome on the flight. I can’t even begin to tell you. I feel like I’ve really made progress! I didn’t cry during take off and I only grabbed my assistant’s hand once and I WAS NOT EVEN MEDICATED. Or drunk.
9. Except, um, at the airport I bought this book called “Ask the Pilot” because on the cover the New York Times said that people with a fear of flying should read it and I was all “that’s me!” Except I started reading it before going to bed to calm me down and found that an entire fucking chapter of the book is devoted to the top ten worst air disasters in history. Thanks, asshole pilot author. I’m going to be a basket case on the flight home.
10. I feel so fucking out of it. I miss your blogs! I feel like I don’t know what’s going on in your lives and I hate it. I can’t wait to catch up over the weekend. Hopefully my Google Reader won’t explode by then. Don’t do anything fun without me, okay?
11. My assistant asked me if I have a blog. I repeat: MY ASSISTANT ASKED ME IF I HAVE A BLOG. I’m not sure if it’s because she saw something on my computer screen or if she was just asking in general the way people sometimes do. I said “what’s a blog?” Good cover Clink. GOOD COVER.
Tired Clink out.
xo.
I think I love you when you’re incoherent. And eating for two. I would also like to be the first to congratulate you for flying without much fear! Yay! To Clink!
Um… the inquiring minds of strangers want to know- when are you going to take the test?! Am I the only one worried about that little blurb in your post?
I miss you. Don’t be pregnant- no cute maternity dresses!
God I’m shallow.
Come back!!
You’re not pregnant. You’re stressed. But did you take the test? It will probably put your mind at ease.
Now come back. Now.
Eep. The “eating for two” was supposed to be sarcastic. Don’t be pregnant. Unless you want to be pregnant. But eat to your heart’s delight!
Haha, that is a very good cover, Clink. But I think anyone that watches Bravo is well-aware of what a blog is. They just don’t shut up about their blogs.
I hope you wrote down how your assistant explained to you what a blog was. I have a feeling that would make an excellent post on this blog you do not keep which does not exist.
I’m glad you love Boston. Now, just love the Sox and the Pats and life will be good. And take the damn test. Put your mind at ease.
I will second Molly. Come back. Now. We really, really miss you. And it’s not that we don’t love your guest posters. But we love you too!
1. I wanna know the results of the test too.
2. What a HORRIBLE thing to include in a book for people who have a fear of flying.
3. Good cover.
4. You’re too cute.
Seriously…hook, line and sinker. Come back and update uus on the results of that test.
But seriously it’s probably just a backlash of being ok on the flight
What are you doing posting on my blog?
And HI!!
Clink, did you get to go to Clink yet (as in the bar, place, er… restaurant in Boston?) You can see that I clearly know what I’m talking about because I don’t even know if they serve food…
We miss you, Clink! And yes, I totally back you up on #1. Not because you should stop writing on your own blog, but because you can take a hefty cut from each one of your ‘hos’ - especially that Peter. He’s trouble. But in a good way.
The test? The test? But yay for flying, I love it, and that book sounds retarded.
OH niiiice save clink! lol!! and omg - pregnant maybe?! so exciting! i miss you and um hate to break it to you but your google reader probs WILL self-destruct thanks to NaBloPoMo!! hurry back!
We miss you too!!
And … did you take the test yet?…
I miss you, Clink! I just arrived in Boston this morning on business myself. As I was walking in the lobby of my hotel I saw a very together woman walking outside on the sidewalk. She looked like she could be a witty and sincere writer. I had a momentary impulse to run outside, stop her, and ask “Hey, are you Clink?” But then I realized this would lead to awkwardness if it wasn’t you.
I too have developed a crush on Beantown. I feel like I’m cheating on New York a little bit. But MAN the cold!
WE MISS YOU! Hurry baaaack!
And I sorta got excited for you over the possible pregnancy. Test results??
Can’t wait to hear what you liked about Boston. It is cute, isn’t it? I miss it.
And feeling a little defensive, so just wanted to say I think it is cold in NYC this week too.
Hurry back!
Ditto what everyone else said! Yep, couldn’t have said any of it better myself. Well, maybe, but why try? Take the test, relax, stop eating for two (dresses, remember!), and hurry back!
Who do you think you are?! First you abandon us for a business trip, then you leave us with these great guest bloggers who rub our noses in their rockin’ friendships with you. Now you come back, drop a line or two about possibly being preggo, and disappear?! The worst part is, it all just made me heart you more…..
Come home and post about the test! *whine*
Oh, and don’t worry- I have not been having a BIT of fun without you.
No Clink and M babies yet [although they would definitely be all cute and awww!]!!! Babies do not = hot Clink in fab wedding dress. Although I will totally still read if this turned into a preggers/mommy blog =).
“What’s a blog?” That’s classic.
And uh you’re freaking me out about the whole baby test thing. I’ve been the brave one before and purchased them for friends, but never for myself and holyjesuslord if I ever had to take one because I seriously thought I might be pregnant, I think I’d probably pass out.
Also, I haven’t been doing anything fun so don’t worry. TB is out of town so, as exciting as me blogging about watching tv and hanging out with my cat is, you haven’t missed much.
Have a safe flight back!
Yay, a brief stop-in! Glad to hear your plane didn’t crash, etc. Also, “What’s a blog?” is probably the best possible answer to that question.
It’s got to be stress making you feel ill. Maybe it’s something in the water? (could I sound more like a mom??) Take the test, you are stressing us out! And congrats on no meds! Dang, I don’t think even I could manage that!
And I liked BeanTown so much that I called F mid vacation and told him we could move there. I think he wet himself with glee.
oh I’m glad you like Boston
it is a great city
also - “what’s a blog?”
hilarious.
we miss you!! come back…oh and take the test…it will help with the stress. : )
hahahaha you’re fabulous and hi i <3 your blog (guest posters too!!) and Boston = <3 I miss it. Take care of it while you’re there? kthx.
take the test, PLEASE!!! I’m dying here!
Aww this post cracked me up, especially the “What’s a blog?” thing. Absolute gold, that one!
The bit about the plane book cracked me up, but congrats on being a good flyer!
Even though I don’t comment every day, I come here eagerly every day and I miss you as well! Have a safe trip back to NYC.
we miss you!!!
Good response, way to deflect it by answering a question with another question.
Point #11 - Thanks for that tip, I’m going to remember that one.
